Hi guys. Posted it on the general section of the forum and thought I'd post it here too. Just wanted to see if anyone's having similar issues to mine. I have a very "bassy" rattle from the engine whenever I shift gears but it doesn't happen all the time. However, it's more frequent when the car just engages into first gear or when I'm on first gear and I let go of the gas. Any thoughts. I can only hear it when the radio's not on. I don't know if it can lead to anything bigger than that.

Randomly I heard the rattle when I was at around 120kph and I let go of the gas too..

Would really appreciate any comments... or even speculations for that matter (just to try and rule things out)..

Try taking a video and posting it as that might help us understand the sound better.

The dsg makes a clunky noise too.

The 120kph rattle is a first.

Also, having the videos on hand will help if there indeed is a problem and can be shown to the service people. :)

Yup, I thought about that too.. Will do so..
